Common areas and subdivision entry ways will be decorated by the Association on the weekend prior to Thanksgiving.  Lights are to be taken down after New Years Day.  In past years, homeowners have used the white miniature lights.  Multi-colored, multi-sized lights, icicles lights and flashing lights have been used as well.  Each street has a theme (summarized below).  Be creative with yard decorations that support your theme.  If you have any questions about your street theme, please contact the Association at info@eldoradohomeowners.org, the “contact us” page on this web site, or the property manager.
